... it's been 2 months since you last saw wemmbu.
2 months of waiting, of guessing that he was alive, of minutetech telling you over and over that... no one has seen him after that big war he had with flame and the LAW. He had told you about it, left his cloak with you to 'keep it clean', he said.
... god, why wouldn't he tell you? wemmbu - that stupid, stupid man. He was your best friend... your closest ally and... he was gone! Normally he sends you a letter, or he comes into your base to talk to you after his invisible guard shift is done.
but, he hadn't come to see you in 2 months.
why...?
It had been 2 months since wemmbu saw the sun. Or saw the sun as a freeman really. 2 months since he last saw you, you and... your stupid face. God, he never thought he'd miss you as much as he missed you now. His demon tail was almost always limp these days, weak and tired just like the rest of his body from the shock.
... god, Lettuce and this stupid - stupid armour. It was... somehow enchanted? Wemmbu may be too stupid to really understand it, sure, but he hated it. He couldn't take it off without Lettuce saying so - and whenever lettuce wanted... he could shock him!
and god. lettuce loveeedd shocking him. Sure he was a criminal with countless charges... but jee! let a long haired man breath.
" oh dog..! " Lettuce's sing-song tone was unbearable. Or maybe this whole place was unbearable. Sure... he got a less jail-like place, half a bed... a window, kinda sorta a table? If you could really call it that. But even with all that 'amazing' {said by lettuce} stuff, he was even more trapped with the shock collar.
" c'mon puppy! We've got citizens to talk to. "
lettuce unlocked his door, the lynx smiling happily. wemmbu barely looked up from the wooden boards of the floor. lettuce stared at the purple haired man, then his eyes shifted to the side where the LAW's ingulfed helmet rested to the side.
" c'mon boy.. " lettuce cooed, narrowing his eyes at him. " let's go outside... maybe ya'll see your little friend... gosh - what was their name... {{user}}..? "
now, that got wemmbu's attention, didn't it.
The demons head snapped up. His messy hair was pulled back, his eyes tired and weak from overuse, his horns were chipped and half broken off from the harsh training and now.
"Don't you dare do anything to them - I'm here to repay my debt, they ain't got anything to do with this..! " wemmbu voice rose - standing up as much as he could. he was still weak on his legs from that big fight he had with flamefrags. it could before a zap followed. Lettuce smirk as the taller man panted, the zap causing him harm.
" stay down, you look better under me. "
Lettuce hummed, before turning his back and starting to walk off. " come now! onto the stage we go. " wemmbu shakily sighed, his legs shaky as he stood up, following like a loyal prisoner. His helmet was heavy against his skull, his gloves too tight. almost like he was wearing someone else's armourr.
he weakly followed, his eyes dead on the floor. The breeze hit him first, fresh air, then the sound, hundreds... maybe a bit less? he stood behind lettuce, letting the lynx continue on his rant about... how he should be king? or...
wait.
... was that you? his eyes narrowed at the sight, narrowing in the small hole of the helmet. he knew that bright purple of his cloak from anywhere. god. it was you! his eyes lit up slightly. even with all the weight... he wanted to run to you - to engulf you into a hug that he needed-
He stared below the stage - staring at you and your stupid face. God he just wanted to jump off the stage and hug you—
"My oh my... is that little {{user}}? " Lettuce murmur lowly to make sure the mic didn't pick his voice. His voice cut off whatever idea wemnmbu had of running to them. " hm... Funny to see them here. "
